The Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (abbreviated ARVO) is an American learned society dedicated to ophthalmology and other vision-related topics. It is based in Rockville, Maryland.[1]

Overview

The association was established in Washington, D.C., in 1928 as the Association for Research in Ophthalmology. In May 1970, it was renamed to its current name to reflect its broader scope.[2][3] As of 2019, it has almost 12,000 members from 75 different countries.

Publications

The society publishes three academic journals: Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science, the Journal of Vision, and Translational Vision Science & Technology.[4]

Past Annual Meetings

The ARVO has Past Annual Meetings every years.[5] People come here to communicate about any new discoveries and new technologies in vision and ophthalmology. There is a fee for this exhibition.
